SOLDIERS are relearning their urban warfare skills in a new course at Copehill Down.

The new Urban Operators Instructors Course will train close to 100 military instructors a year across all arms. The instructors can then go back to their units and teach the tactics at platoon and section level.

Designed specifically for soldiers who are already instructors, the course is the first of its kind to give a formal qualification.

The course is two weeks long and will run twice a year.
